Tutorial: Database Structured Query Language SQL Select Tutorial

How to use the SELECT statement to select data from a table in SQL.

Tutorial Details:

SQL Select

The SELECT statement is used to select data from a table. The tabular result is stored in a result table (called the result-set).

Syntax
SELECT column_name(s)
FROM table_name

Note: SQL statements are not case sensitive. SELECT is the same as select.

SQL SELECT Example
To select the content of columns named "LastName" and "FirstName", from the database table called "Persons",

Most database software systems allow navigation of the result set with programming functions, like: Move-To-First-Record, Get-Record-Content, Move-To-Next-Record, etc.

Programming functions like these are not a part of this tutorial. To learn about accessing data with function calls, please visit our ADO tutorial .
